I just hate that most politicians can't seem to keep their PECKER in their pants, and ignore the fact they are risking their family, their political career (unless they're a Dem) and their Party for their indiscretions.
I'm sure Sanford has a legitimate reason, which, IMO he does NOT necessarily have to divulge. You just know, if/when he does, reporters will be climbing all over each other to verify his story. The freakin' NY Times will fly the reporters in, just like they did Palin. I can see it now -- reporters repelling down a rope from the helicopter, with notepad and laptop in tow, to talk to anyone who may have been a witness to Sanders disappearance!
If he's asked at the next press conference where he was, he should ask reporters why Obama has STILL not divulged his records from Occidental, Columbia and Harvard. Let them choke on that question ... or ignore it -- like they would anyway.
If the rodents were held to the standard with which Sanford is being held to by the media and their so-called “reporting”, there wouldn’t be any in office. No one would want to run for office. There has NEVER been any allegations made against Sanford in his career about infidelity. None. To see the speculation is incredible. Cannibalizing ourselves. Really makes me ashamed. No wonder we can’t get any decent people to run for office when they can be slimed so easily, yet the bad guys will run because they have no sense of shame.
